Re: hp simple pass identity protection not working with windows 8.

I had trouble at first. With windows 8, on my DV6-3084ca, I have HP simplepass 5.20.233 installed. It does not work to log onto Windows, but it works using internet explorer. I have to do a clean install, and see how it works. I just did an update to Windows 8. Hopefully with a clean install, it might work better.

HP stops supporting comuters that are a year or older, which I think is wrong.

clean install or not, it won't change a thing.

the simplepass won't work unless you have it on windows 7 compatibility mode, and it will work just fine

I had this issue before, and I handled it the same way I did with the switchable graphics

cheers the windows 7 compatibility mode worked grand for the graphics and finger print software, you just swipe you finger on the logon screen and it logs you in although nothing says swipe your finger on the logon screen it just works !!!
